| Abstract: | The study explores the effects of three cultural variables i. country of employment, ii. race/ethnicity and iii. religion on managerial views of profit and 15 other business priorities. In total, 203 responses were gathered (120 randomly and 83 by quota) from executives and managers belonging to either of two race/ethnic groups (Caucasian and Chinese) and three religious denominations (Christian, Buddhist and Malay Muslim) from three different countries: Australia, Singapore and Malaysia. It is found that these three different cultural variables affected (to varying degrees) the attitudes of managers towards profit and other related business concerns. |
